  When applying for a cryptocurrency exchange account, you will usually need to provide documents that prove your place of residence. Commonly accepted documents include utility bills (such as electricity, water, or gas bills), bank statements, government-issued documents (such as a driver's license or ID card), and rental agreements. These documents should clearly display your name, address, and be recent (usually within the last three months). It's important to note that different exchanges may have slightly different requirements, so it's always a good idea to check the specific documentation guidelines provided by the exchange you are applying to. Remember, providing accurate and valid proof of residence is crucial for ensuring compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and know your customer (KYC) regulations.
